Abstract: An information acquiring section acquires identification information recorded in a card. A behavior DB stores a kind-of-card ID, and software associated with the kind-of-card ID. A processing section, when the identification information is acquired by the information acquiring section, specifies software associated with a kind of card by referring to storage contents of the behavior DB. Incidentally, the behavior DB stores the kind-of-card ID and processing for software with the kind-of-card ID and the processing being associated with each other. The processing section executes the processing stored in the behavior DB for the specified software.

Abstract: Examples are disclosed that relate to detecting cheating at a game platform level using machine learning techniques.

The data-holding subsystem comprises instructions executable by the logic subsystem to receive notifications related to user progress in a game provided by the game to the online game platform, apply a classifying function to classify the user progress in the game as normal or outlying based upon the notifications, if the progress is classified as outlying then taking an action in response to the outlying classification, and if the progress is not classified as outlying then not taking the action.

Abstract: An electronic gaming machine enables implementation of a base game, from which a bonus game may be triggered. Outcomes achieved during a play of the bonus game may be retained for use during subsequent triggering of the bonus game. For example, during play of the bonus game a player may achieve one or more game conditions, such as held special symbols, sticky WILD symbols, or award multipliers. These game conditions may be retained at the end of the bonus game and used if the player subsequently triggers another bonus game while playing the base game.

Abstract: A basic value setting unit (101) sets the basic value of the frame rate of a game screen, based on a setting operation by a user. A determination unit (110) determines as to the presence or absence of an operation relative to an operating unit while a game is being executed. A frame rate changing unit (120) changes the frame rate of the game screen, based on the result of determination by the determination unit (110), while the game is being executed. A frame rate changing unit (120) sets the frame rate to a value lower than the basic value when no operation relative to the operating unit (14) is performed while the game is being executed.

Abstract: A controller of a central control system generates an operator interface that enables definition of a plurality of target combinations via a plurality of data input fields. The controller defines the target combinations to include each combination of cards that satisfies operator input into the data input fields. The controller receives signals from a plurality of EGMs indicating respective game outcomes, determines if the game outcomes satisfy one of the target combinations, and, if so, decrements a counter value. The controller awards a bonus if the counter value is equal to a threshold value, or continues to decrement the counter until the counter value reaches the threshold value.

Abstract: A control program causing a computer to execute a competition between two players, based on a correction value obtained by correcting a reference value of at least one player of the two players, the two players respectively belonging to two groups, to store a point which may be determined based on the reference value of at least the one player, in a storage unit in association with a group to which the winning player belongs, and to determine a result of the competition between groups, based on the summation of points which may be stored in the storage unit in association with each group. In a case where a predetermined action is performed on the predetermined game content of the group to which at least the one player belongs, control may be performed to change the correction value of the player and not to change the reference value.

Abstract: A game scene display control method and system and a storage medium are provided. A game includes a first game character controlled by a first client (210) and a second game character controlled by a second client (220), the first game character belongs to a first character faction (120), and the second game character belongs to a second character faction (130). The method includes: a first game content is displayed on the first client (210), the first game content including a first game scene (111); a second game content is displayed on the second client (220), the second game content including a second game scene (112), and the first game scene (111) is mirror imaging symmetrical to the second game scene (112) based on a symmetrical mirror plane.

Abstract: [Object] To provide an information processing system and an information processing method capable of controlling content that is to be provided in association with a location in consideration of feelings of persons who are present at the location. [Solution] Provided is an information processing system including: a communication unit that receives at least information related to a feeling of a user who is present in a predetermined region; and a control unit that controls content that is associated with the predetermined region and is to be provided to the user, on the basis of the feeling of the user who is present in the predetermined region, which is specified on the basis of the information received by the communication unit.

Abstract: A system that mirrors motion of a physical object by displaying a virtual object moving in a virtual environment. The mirroring display may be used for example for feedback, coaching, or for playing virtual games. Motion of the physical object is measured by motion sensors that may for example include an accelerometer, a gyroscope, and a magnetometer. Sensor data is transmitted to a computer that calculates the position and orientation of the physical object and generates a corresponding position and orientation of the virtual object. The computer may correct or adjust the calculations using sensor data redundancies. The virtual environment may include constraints on the position, orientation, or motion of the virtual object. These constraints may be used to compensate for accumulating errors in position and orientation. The system may for example use proportional error feedback to adjust position and orientation based on sensor redundancies and virtual environment constraints.
